Default auto tranny fluid change - hmm

i don't know alot about cars, so please don't flame me for my n00biness =D

so i was getting my oil changed, and this guy brings me outside

the guy reccomended getting my transmisson fluid changed REALLY soon, and showed me the colors, etc. mine was dark green kinda.. just a darkish almost black color, he said it should be pink - and that for a full flush that would get all the metallic pieces out, etc - would be 75$

he also reccomended a radiator flush, but said that's not immediate as the tranny fluid, and could wait

i just got the car 2 months ago. it's a 2000 LS with 48k miles, i have no idea if it's previously had a tranny fluid change - anybody with more knowledge than me have any suggestions? like should i just go ahead and do that?
