Which RV do you have? Could it be the AC drain is clogged?

It is on a GT 377 and is coming from the duct serving the vent. Approximately 2'' diameter. It does not drip all the time. This is the second time it has happened. Outside temp. upper 70's.

Maybe it was because the outside humidity (which was also inside your motorhome) was so high that when running the cold air through the ducts in the dash it was creating condensation.

That is possible, I think I will wrap the duct with insulation and that should prevent a recurrence.

I used to get wet feet from the condensation dripping when we had our old Fleetwood Bounder. Just considered it part of her character and kept my feet tucked back when the AC was on.

Just experienced the exact same thing on my driver side today. We had a long ride in almost 100 degree temps. Driver side AC duct work was condensating and dripping on my foot. This is in a brand new 2015 Coachmen Mirada 35bh

The air coming through the AC ducts should be dried out during the cooling process. Unless you have warm, moist air from outside blowing over the cooler duct, I can't see where you would be getting condensation. Are you sure the unit is not icing up and the drains are plugged? If your using up, get the refrigerant levels checked and see if they're not low.
