Is it worth $20k?

Lookin at a 2000 F250 CC 4x4 7.3diesel. It has 85,000 miles and is a "dixie edition" truck. Ranch hand front and rear bumpers, 4" lift, stock wheels with bigger tires...

Im worried since its getting close to 100k that there is major maintainance coming. Owner said bluebook is $18k low side and $20k high side. From what I have read, at 100k miles you need to drain and refill the front and rear ends. Possibly ball joints, trans flush/filter, and coolant flush. I know it doesnt sound like taht much but it adds up. Im afraid of spending 20k now and another $1500-2000 in work.

Any suggestions?

Sure, make them do all that stuff first and then give them 20k, or offer 18k based on what you just said.

8mpg, value seems to be very dependant on location. Here in Northern MD that truck in good cond. would sell quickly at $20,000.
