Default 97 truck

My neighbor has an F350 for sale with 7.3 motor. It has 233,000 miles and he's asking $12,500. Does that sound right?? And what should I expect as far as repairs/maintenance is concerned if I buy it?

12500 for a 97 with 233k miles is insane... Period... Find another truck or cut his price nearly in half...
