Default 2000 Bird with 8k miles...change tranny fluid?

Hello all. I just picked up a 2000 Formula with 8,800 miles on it. I'm wondering if I should change the tranny fluid? I know it only has 8,800 miles on the clock but it is 5 years old and probably sat for long periods of time? Input? Thanks.

Probably not needed, but it certainly wont hurt anything. A full check of everything (fluids, plugs, wires, etc) is probably a good idea.

I would, it can't hurt. I change mine once or twice a year. 40k on the odo with no trans probs.
