Recent DUI in 2013. Back in 2001, an officer blocked me in my parked car and noticed I had been drinking. DUI was thrown out, but I received reckless.

A DUI reduced to a reckless driving charge is still considered alcohol related. The state attorney, the judge and your lawyer all know that you had a DUI that was reduced to an alcohol related reckless driving. Apparently the judge mentioned your prior DUI arrest, but did not sentence you to a second offense, it sounds like you were sentenced as a first time offender. Apparently the court  wanted you to attend the DUI level 2 school for multi offenders. Take the DUI class and do any other things the judge ordered and put it behind you.

Will they extradite me from another state for a DUI offense?

There is no yes/no answer. It depends on the state and whether or not they have filed a Governor's Warrant. If they filed a warrant then you may be picked up by Florida police agency and held for a maximum of thirty days; Foreign state is notified and that state is responsible for transportation. If they decline to pick you up after notice then Florida will release you.

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. The main questions are where was your car parked and how did it get there if you were not driving. Also without any blood or breath test, it may be difficult to prove that you were intoxicated. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced criminal defense attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. (S)he would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.
