You use your a/c this time of year???

There is a drain for the box on the firewall. (cooling the air causes it to shed moisture) If that is plugged, the water will end up on the floor of your truck.

These trucks are also notorious for air being trapped in the heater core. So, it doesn't work worth beans. Two separate problems.
