I'm always curious what the instrument panel looks like. How about a few interior shots, including the mountains in the distance.
Okay. Except that this sweet, sweet ride is angled in the wrong direction to include any snow-clad mountains out through where the windshield was, and shooting through a door window (either or any of them, whether that be the driver-side front or the back seat suicide rear) just wouldn't be quite as impactful. So far as the instrument panel goes, there's not much left. The stereo, the on-dash computer system, all the digital gauges, heck, even the tilt steering wheel and the cruise control actuator got purloined quite some time ago. And besides, the interior was filled to the gills with tumbleweeds and (maybe, laying in wait beneath the pointy, scratchy husks of the Russian Thistle, a rattlesnake or some bleached white finger bones/kneecaps/or a skull) crashing around in that stuff outside the ride was bad enough.
....so here's as much as I can offer to quench your curiosity, Alberio:

Your existential need(s) is [are] my command pleasure, Cheepf.
But I refuse to remove the bullet holes that someone has so artfully placed!!! To do so would shoot me down to the searing, brimstone-encrusted hellhole(s) of 'PP geekness'. Or maybe, somewhere even worse.

AARRGGHH!!
Actually, it's quite artistic!

Talking about many frames, a little more wide angle on it, where the subject is slightly dwarfed by the environment, would emphasize its desolation and solitude.
If i may, i'd like to edit your photo to show what I meant.

A little more wide angle on anything here would've forced me to include elements I didn't want to include. I mean, really! How out of place would the Eiffel Tower, a jetport, and a Gucci Outlet Store look within the context of what DID get included here? And "desolation"??? Crikey, none of these show "desolation". You want "desolation", I can show you some desolation! Utah's full of it. (Desolation, I mean.)
But if you wanna edit something, have at it. (Can we haz generative fill, pleze?)

Perfect, as I suspected, everything missing in action. Do I detect that telltale buzzing sound close by?

CanonShot! Barre! Please! This is THE GALLERY, ffs! You know (don't you?) that neither fisticuffs nor mayhem nor displays of quick-draw-itude are allowed here in THE GALLERY!
...oh, wait.... I spoke (wrote) TOO SOON! (Serves me right, I suppose. Then again, as a proper [or occasionally improper... but let's not dwell on that] card-carrying Hoglodyte, I, too, have become conditioned to not actually read the stuff that anybody writes. (Something I learned early on when confronted: answer only: I'm ONLY here to look at the pictures!)
So... golf-clap to CanonShot for having shown us all the gentlemanly (or gentlewomanly, or gentlepersonly, whatever) way out of this conundrum!
But if the two of you do prefer to perform that test of quick-draw-itude, could/would one or the other of you --or anybody else who might read this [HAH! AS IF!]-- please opine on which lens I might bring to record the carnage?
p.s.: Bonnie & Clyde? Who're they? EVERYBODY knows this this relic belonged to Butch & Etta!

Done and done. Mike turned it down, though. Seems he can't stand the sight of blood, and doesn't like tumbleweeds much either.

Trust me Cany...you don't have the lens that you will need to record the carnage! Do I really have to point you to B&H, KEH, MPB...etcetera to find the ONE lens suitable for this most difficult of all kinds of photography?
Come on!!!
See, I read!

Really off road vehicle. Looks like it's been off for a while.

Glad to be of assistance, Cheepf. Because as Ansel Adams always said: "That'll be $9,000, please. And for another ten bucks I'll get it framed for you, too!"
