I just switched from a 2020 1500 Longhorn to a 2021 3500 DRW Bighorn. It was all about payload for me. My 1500 only had 1200# of payload (as per door sticker) and the 3500 has 5720# payload.
I currently have an Ultra Light TT so the 1500 had no issues with pulling about 6k loaded. But just attaching the RV to bumper took away half the available payload.
I started looking at 2500 models and almost pulled the trigger on one. And then I found the 3500 with an amazingly high payload and decided to get it. It is also rated for 22k towing but it’s unlikely I would ever tow that heavy. I eventually want to move to a 5th wheel RV and this is the right truck for that.
It’s only been a few days but so far I am happy with my decision. It is a black night edition. The 3500 Big Horn has all the options I wanted except LED headlights and tails. I plan to remedy the headlights in short order but undecided on the tail lights.
Sorry for the long response but these are my reasons anyway.
