Default Fluid dripping/pouring noise?

I noticed when I shut my truck down today that there was a dripping or pouring noise coming from the truck afterwards... like if i was pouring a thick liquid from a cup kinda slow. My roommate has a dakota and says his does the same thing... is this just like fluid drain back noise or do i have some kind of underlying condition i'm unaware of... once again.... lol. Thanks in advance fellas.

is it from the inside of the truck? I would say heater core/condenser. I had a problem with my 96 and it would sound like dripping coming from inside the dash. it was the heater core.

Do you get a film on the inside of your windshield? That is antifreeze "mist."
