Default Condensate from Tail Pipe ?

So how much Condensate is normal ?
When i start my Rig in the morning i get a puddle on the ground from the tail pipe and also a small puddle comes out of the connection between the pipe and the Muffler. I would say a half of a cup of water between the two.
500 miles on Brand new motor.

That's what mine does. It's just the jeep drooling for wheeling time.

If thats the case then there should be a 50 gallon drum full under it, because I have yet to Wheel it, problem after problem
All the miles on it have been for trying to figure out the problems.
But I'm getting close
Anyway good to here it is normal
