UPDATE:
I posted a few times in this threads, Just added this to the first post.
Even though I received the invite email from Tesla, my account was still saying the same as it's always been.
I called Tesla and after being on hold for 35 minutes and forwarding the email they sent me, they said it was a glitch and my two reservations are still in the reserved status and I'm unable to configure. They said there's nothing they can do.
I guess I have to wait now until my turn comes around again.

I’ve been checking all day and nothing yet, although at 11288 it’s a long shot

I just placed the order for the dual-motor (Dec. 23) I got my invite on Dec. 8th. I am working through the paperwork. Should I fill out the loan paperwork or wait for a VIN?

Your about 110000 above where they are.
I reserved at 11/22/2019, 7:48pm Pacific Time. Roughly 24 hours after the unveiling event. So crazy how many reservations were made in that first 24 hours. I had no idea that “sleeping on it” in terms of decision making was going to hurt me later. On all of my other major purchases that practice had served me well

Me too, I reserved during the unveiling and I’m 1128.

It’s crazy now that I got the invite for the founders I’m hesitant on pulling the trigger. The $20k extra just seems pointless
It may seem pointless but paying it gets you in line for actual delivery. We’ve all waited 4 years to get the opportunity to buy and this is as close as you’ll get to knowing that you WILL get a truck and can expect a delivery date. Those without invites will still be waiting for word on when regular production will start with no guarantees they’ll even get the chance to buy one in 2024. In essence, passing up this invite will put you in the same position we all were in a month ago, completely in the dark hoping something would happen. But 20k extra is a lot of money. Take time and really think about it before you decide then do what’s best for you and your family.

Was thinking about this. If this is the case then the pricing they show on the site to the public right now would be false advertising, no? They would effectively be selling the vehicle All-Wheel Drive and Cyberbeast configurations at $20k more than they are advertising, locked in for a year or more. For this reason, I don't think that'll be the case. I expect regular sales to begin sometime in Q1, but likely with delivery dates in Q4 at the earliest for AWD, if not 2025 Q1+.

I have RN112836XXX and have not gotten the email yet. I am in NJ. I do want FSD as I recently transfered the FSD from my 2018 Model 3 LR AWD to my 2023 Model Y and miss it when drivinng the 3. I also want the hardware to power share with my house (universal wall connector and inverter). Now, $80k really was my limit, but I think I worked the math out to where I can make the $100k AWD make sense. Here's it goes:

Cybertruck's 123KwH battery is the same as ~9 power walls. Each Powerwall costs $8400 with the hardware to backup the home. That's $75,600 right there minus $10-$20k for incentives in most people's cases. Cybertruck can also output 11.5Kw with Powerwall outputting only around 5Kw. I have a 2018 LR AWD Model 3 with 55k miles on it that is paid off and I'd trade in. Thinking I could get around $15k-$20k for that at least. KBB says more, but I'm skeptical. Anyways, I'm pretty set on ordering the AWD $100K Cybertruck once I get my order email. I have a neighbor who keeps asking me to buy my rez too, lol. But I know that's not really possible / allowed.
So long as you realize the truck won’t be available to manipulate the grid like an enohase or battery can but only function as backup power thats an ok way to justify it
