I'm with Forest River on this one, this seems very odd. I regularly stay in my 180 at temperatures below freezing in the spring and fall and the only time I've had excessive condensation, though not to this extent, was when I forgot to crack the roof vent. I do not crack my windows and I do not run my vent fan.

I heat with electric heaters to a comfortable level and while I do not carry water at these temps, I do shower at facilities and have my towel and washrag hanging in the bathroom to dry over night. The water to condense has to be coming from somewhere and for it to be that much, it sounds as if it's not just from breathing during sleep. That would be the first thing I would give serious thought... where is the water vapor coming from?
Also, at those temperatures, I'd recommend using the heat with the roof vent slightly open as the rising warm air will help evacuate the water vapor.
