Default 5.4 question

Ok, so i know that a little liquid out of the exhaust is normal and nothing to worry about, but since i am stangless (till it gets fixed) i'm driving my dads 2000 F-150 triton. and i started it, moved it very little, parked it where its easier to get out. turned it off, and looked at the truck.. and from several places, where the pipe connects to another on the exhaust it was dripping a liquid. and actually pretty bad if you ask me. like bad enough you could see the liquid on the ground after maybe 15-30 seconds. Is this bad?? and if it is how can i help it.. the truck is throwing no codes!!

Water is part of the combustion process so some water coming out isn't a problem. You normally don't see this because you drive your car/truck long enough for the exhaust to get hot and vaporise the water.
