My neighbour has a 2011 Ram with a SLT badge on the tailgate mine is a 2012 Bighorn with the Bighorn badge on the tailgate. Just at the top of mind I have these items that his does not.
A glove box cover
4 wd auto
a household plug receptacle(110 volt)
digital cluster in the instrument panel
factory dual exhaust
factory fog lights
sliding electric rear window
illuminated -signal lit side mirrors
quad halogen
20 inch wheels
I probably am missing a few more but I think that is most of the items given on the Bighorn package compared to a stripped SLT.
I would have liked a sunroof and heated seats/steering wheel but I purchased at 2yrs old. Still, I am quite satisfied with my 2012 and not even thinking of a trade at this point. My neighbor is though.

What's cool about my Bighorn is the tailgate badge covers the secret 900HP enable switch.

Your neighbor doesn’t have quad headlights on a SLT? Must be a 09-12 thing, my SLT has pretty much everything you listed aside from fogs, dual exhaust (4.7L, need to go custom) 4WD, and side lit mirrors which i was planning on upgrading to bc i need power folding mirrors.

I personally prefer the 17’ 5 spoke alloys, they look really good to me. I also love the 18 Limited rims.

I must have really lucked out cuz mine has everything listed there. except 4 wheel auto and not sure I'd want it. It's a great feature but think takes away the fun aspect of driving a truck. Living up in Canada the heated seats and wheel are such a bonus. In the next little bit I'm going to debadge it all so what the badging says doesn't matter..LOL. I just know that hearing people talk on here and in person I have a lot of options that most higher models come with without having to pay for a higher price for that model...
