Here are a few more before and after shots...

Here's what the VRT (vinyl, rubber and tire) treatment can do
Right side dirty, left side treated. And no, that's not wax or anything on the right...

Hey guys, thanks for all the nice comments!
Mark05KR: Thanks man, I really like that hood shot too, I wish I could post a full res pic... Is there any way to do that? I'm a true believer in Adams products now!
There are still water spots all over the truck, mostly in areas that didn't see much action from the PC. The worst areas are around the door handles and at the edges of the sheetmetal (like where the hood and fenders come together). Hopefully the weather will be nice this weekend and I can do another detail and focus on the problem areas.
RP: As soon as the sun comes back I'll snap some. It's been raining the past couple days

Looks slight to moderate. Not knowing what products that you've spun through (or, honestly, all that much about Mr. Adams and his products), I can't really advise.
I *don't* think going up in pad abrasiveness is really the way to go. I do, however, think that slightly more pad pressure (downward pressure to the pad to the paint) with a slightly decreasing amount as you work away. Additionally, you might consider jumping to a slightly more abrasive polish and then work to a less abrasive polish.
G'luck. Oh yeah... get that wax off around the emblem!!
