wet floorboard
Finally I found what was causing puddles in my pasenger floorboard.If you open your hood and remove the part between the hood and windsheild I think this maybe called the cowl on these trucks.If you look down neer the fender you will see a trauft with a hole toward the front and silicone toward the window.Mine was full of pine straw.I guess it ate away at the silicone and ran down inside the truck.Most of it I couldn't see because of the kick plate inside.Some of it would run out of the heater vent.(making me think it may be heater core)Its worse if you park your truck uphill were rain water will run toward cab.Cleaned it out and will try reseal tomorrow.Hope this helps someone.
