Default AC condensation dripping on exhaust ?????

This has to be the first veicle I have ever owned that the condensate drains on to the exhasust. Is this normal for the Daks. I have a 2008 V8 Laramie 4x4. I was using the AC yesterday and every time I stopped and parked I could here the condensate dripping onto the exhaust,it was making thisHissssss, Hsssss, Hisssss sound. The whole time I was walking away from the truck. I one of the times came back to the truck a few minuts later and it was still dripping and hisssing at me. If this is normal, has anone develope a fix, to drain it off somewhere besides onto the exhaust?

Mine drains on the ground. I would just mount a piece of plastic somewhere underneath that will let the water run off to the ground.
