Every forum has a douchebag troll and GMB just moved himself into that spot here.

The rest of you guys, thanks much for chiming in on this.The only reason I even posted this was the amount of water I see is kind of significant and not just small droplets, sometimes I see a puddle about 6" in diameter and sometimes it's just one and sometimes it's two smaller puddles but always near the mid pipes or where the resonator pipe would be when it's just 1 puddlle.

When it's 2 smaller puddles it's a bit further back towards the rear but not where the mufflers sit. I have not seen anything significant out of the tips except for the usual drop here and there and white smoke of course on cold start.

@Anthony GT, of course I've seen white smoke out of tail pipes but my question wasn't what is the white smoke coming out of my tail pipe . I have owned just about every major brand and don't recall big puddles of water on the ground and I haven't owned a mustang in 29 years before buying this last one and had no idea. I trust your opinions here though and will not worry about it any longer.

Yeah, both of my Mustangs leave puddles on the floor at start up. I've never really looked into the physics behind why, but it is normal. I'm a mechanic, not trained in the area of water collecting in exhaust systems
