Assuming you are talking about the condensing water dripping from the A/C evaporator inside the truck (was not clear in your post), it is probably a clogged drain tube. Clear it out and see if that helps. I have a writeup on doing that (not on a Toyota, though) on the web page below:

Yes, I have. I went to local pick and pull got a new core, couldnt figure out why it leaked (what failed). But the used one cleared up my troubles.
