I agree that it's a good shot and you did a good job of adjusting the colors to bring out the leaves.
Hope you don't mind, but I did a little edit to show what M-60 is talking about.
Most of the area in front and to the left of the vehicle is just dead space that distracts from the subject. By cropping in closer the viewers focus goes right to the vehicle and the path is more visible. By moving the vehicle a little off center with the front of the vehicle pointed towards the empty space it visually "has room to move" down the path. By moving the horizon towards the bottom of the frame it shows how tall the trees are and their bright colors are much more noticable. (That's another composition rule, keep the horizon towards the top or bottom, never in the center). Another tip if you can remember it when shooting (I never can) is to take a minute to look things over and remove distractions like the slim branches that are sticking up in the foreground. You can remove those in photoshop but it takes more skill than I have to do it without it looking like something was removed.
ETA: I wonder how it would have looked with the headlights on high to light up the path. Might not have worked but it's worth trying next time.
