In this instance, the length of the actual vehicle in reality is 333.4 inches according to John Deere's website. The model overall length is 21 inches so that equates to a scale of 1:15. Roughly it's 1:15.87 but that's a small difference. But if you use the height measurements it's a different ratio. Height over cab is 136 inches and the model is roughly 8 inches height over cab so the ratio 1:17. It's a mixed bag as you can see but at 21 inches or nearly 2 feet long it's a good sized build.
