Picking up the new s550 tomorrow...a couple questions?

At LONG last it is here. They are tinting the windows now and I pick it up at noon.

1. Advice on anything in particular I should know/do before handing over the check?

2. Insurance for tires?

3. Extended warranty? I plan to drive it forever.

4. Can (2), (3) be done later or just on pickup? Alternative providers, like other MB dealers?

Thanks

2. Insurance for tires? If you get it, you'll probably never need it and if you don't you will (Murphy's law). In most cases this needs to be done at signing

3. Extended warranty? I plan to drive it forever. You have time to make this decision,

Best advice, wait 5 months and get the 2018 S Class sedan. Super upgraded electronics.
48 Volt battery system.
Distronic improved to rival Tesla.
Semi autonomous driving improved way beyond 2017 E Class
New engines
