Dale Earnhardt Jr may have been half-joking when he told GM designers he wanted a train horn on his new truck -- like the one he has at home that was bought on eBay -- but that's exactly what Earnhardt got on "Big Red," his custom built 2007 Chevy Silverado crew cab.

 
 

The truck is designed after a truck Dale Jr actually owns. He has an older Silverado that sits in his driveway in North Carolina. He's customized it himself, with a little help from his buddies -- and it really does have a locomotive horn.

 
 

This may be the ultimate off road custom truck. Chevrolet debuted it at the SEMA show in Las Vegas with Dale Jr riding in the passenger seat.

"Everybody always asked me what I drive as a race car driver, well I drive a Silverado," Earnhardt said. " I like to trick mine out a little bit."

 

This is definitely the only truck of it's kind, but based on public demand GM may build a production version of it for you. Get a price for a truck like this or any Chevy truck at Automotive.com

Junior gave GM designers his opinions on the truck's design, from the custom upholstery to the light bar -- and , yes, the train horn.

The truck is jacked up with an off road suspension, and sits on custom 1 of a kind 20" alloy wheels.

The roll bar with integrated lights is in a "flying bridge" style -- and looks like it belongs on a mega-yacht instead of a truck.

The truck's interior is done in a rich black leather with Dale Jr signature embossed in the seats. Te carpet, trim and headliner are also done in all black.

 
 

Under the hood is a 6.2 L Chevy V-8 that produces 380 H.P. and 417 lb-ft of torque.

Eaton ELocker differentials help provide power to all 4 wheels.

A high mounted front brush guard gives the truck a Baja racer look. The fenders, hood and grille are all exclusive to the Dale Earnhardt Jr Silverado.

 

There is even a 6000 lb. Warn winch bolted to the front end.

Custom Spectra Flair paint highlights an understated Dale Jr signature on the side of the truck.

In true off-road style the truck doesn't have a tailgate. Instead, a spare tire is mounted in the bed for a quick change.

A custom roll pan with 6" exhaust pipes sets off the truck's rear.

Custom No. 8 graphics and emblems give the truck an unmistakable finishing touch.
