your dates give me hope for my dec-feb delivery to happen in jan/feb and not in May which is what i was projecting based on "expect the worst" from Elon.

Funny. I'm in CO and had been thinking similarly--I have Dec-Feb listed for first production, and figured I'd be super excited if I could take delivery around my birthday (mid-April). Starting to think that could happen!

Congrats! That’s a super quick turnaround after config. What’s your config btw?

Haven’t had a DS call or a VIN after my 12/14 config confirmation so, decided to call Tesla earlier today - option 3 for the 3 :) - and talked to a rep who did see a DS assigned (Elizabeth wasn’t-told-the-last-name); the rep confirmed that she was in at work and emailed + IM-ed her to call me back. Nothing so far.
 
Interestingly I have no invite email but being the obsessive guy that I am - checked my account and it was open. Already configured and got the thank you for your order email but no invite email yet!

Tesla owner from Aug ‘13, early online reservation, Bay Area

Same with me. Checked my emails, and then checked the account on a whim. Just about fell out of my boots. I’m also an early online reservation.
 
My invites just showed up. Both reservations. I’m not moving forward yet.

We don't mind whether you are moving forward, backward, sideways, back to the stone age, or even back to the ICE age. Just please tell us that you configured your beautiful Model 3's and are anxiously awaiting delivery! :p
