Limited vs Longhorn?

I havent bought a Ram yet, but I really like the saddle interior in the Longhorn. Is there a list of things that are available/included on the Limited that are not available on the Longhorn? I tried searching but didnt get anywhere. Tried printing out window stickers and they have different things listed in different orders... so I thought I'd ask here.

thanks in advance!

Everything the Limited has can be added to a Longhorn

Just because of the interior options I did just that, ordered Longhorn and optioned every Limited item. You do get a different grill but I also preferred the Longhorn grill to the LImited in this case too. I just parked along side a Limited and noticed the side mirrors (standard not tow versions) were different, subtle but different. Not sure if it is build date related or not as the catalog I ordered from does not show or list a different standard side mirror. I and so glad I did it this way. My wife was truly impressed with my selections. Mine is an April 2019 build.

You can get everything on a longhorn just will cost you a tad bit more and you will have a different grille. The longhorn grill is a simpler all chrome straight bar design where the limited grill is a mix of chrome, brushed and graphite colored finishes with nostrils and such.

I love my Longhorn! This is my second Longhorn, the first being a 2014 megacab 2500 diesel. Having said that, I like the limited exterior better.

LL seems to have better discounts from what I have seen... Just yesterday there was a Va dealer with at least 3, all well equipped, that were 33% off MSRP advertised. Never see a Ltd anywhere close to that. Maybe due to the western theme, they have a lessor market? Not sure but sheesh, I about had a coronary when I saw the advertised price. (Now I don't know if there were fake rebates/incentives in there, or if the 4 wheels and tires were $2500 apiece extra.)

Another small thing to consider - the Limited grille is an amazing bug catcher whereas I imagine the Longhorn grill wouldn't show near the carnage. On the other hand, the Limited grille keeps them out of the radiator.

I've actually wondered if you could drive through enough bugs with a Limited grille that your engine would overheat...

Body coloured bumpers,
You can get those on a Longhorn now, too...as you can see in @Truckin’s pic above. That didn’t exist when I ordered, although the two-tone was available (for a Longhorn, not a Limited).

Other than the sadle bags behind the front seats, there's not much "western" theme left when you go with the New Saddle interior. I guess the "wood" is westernish...but almost all luxury cars come with wood these days. Looks fine to me.

I only got the Longhorn for the New Saddle. If it was only offered in that horrible white/creme color with all that stitching, I'd pass. Not a fan of the filigree.

I also can't stand hot black interiors nor the lighter colors that everyone is complaining about getting dirty or staining blue from denim.

The brown was the only clear option for me.

The Limited, like others said, has the black or Indigo/Frost interior instead of Saddle brown, chrome door moldings, different grille, and if equally equipped, will be cheaper.

I looked at the Longhorn, but I preferred the Indigo/Frost interior and the lower price as-equipped. Both are fantastic trucks, though, so you really can't go wrong - just get your preference.

Check your local dealers prices now, my limited model average rebate has gone up from 11K to 17K for the very same truck. I guess I will have to quit looking on new inventory as this is depressing... Good for others though!

Definitely catches a lot of bugs. I wanted to switch to the longhorn grille at first but now my limited grill has grown on me.
