Default Clear fluid under truck

I own 2013 F150 Super Crew Cab, in my driveway it shows clear fluid leak on cement, has no odor, no taste...truck runs fine shows not sign of anything wrong, any ideas what this may be?

Condensation from the exhaust system. It's supposed to do that.

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around that no taste comment. Do you regularly lick the ground?

lol.....Try rubbing it in your eyes. If it stings, it might be something to worry about, but if not, it's probably condensation from either the exhaust or the A/C.

Dude, I've tasted the leak that's on my oil pan just cuz it didn't smell like motor oil but looks and feels like it. Figured why not? Licked my finger. Didn't taste like oil. No I wasn't drunk or on drugs lol. Still dunno if it's the gasket but it ain't dripping so I'm not worried too much yet.

another thought here.....you didn't say where under the trk this leak or what state (meaning temperature) but it could also be condensation from the a/c being on...If it is it will leave a puddle/stream right under the passenger side of the firewall. Even in the wintertime your a/c comes on when you use the front window defroster but I don't know if it would leave much of a visible wet spot from that location ??? (I park on gravell)
