First, it depends on which road you take. There is the pony express trail and the road around behind topaz mountain and perhaps other permutations. I have found there to be some variability in condition but nothing that maintaining a sane speed and watching where one was going couldn't account for. I've driven on much worse. The Bradshaw trail to Rainey's well comes to mind.

I was watching an older YouTube video about Dugway and make sure you turn on the right road. They did not they accidentally turned onto the military base, and it's a bombing range. They had armed guards lead them out.

It’s definitely a long drive into the middle or nowhere, but the road isn’t bad, just not paved. We took our old Subaru on it in the middle of summer (super hot!!!) and it did fine. Did you see any wild horses? We did! It was so cool!

Never before have I seen so much conversation about a road before.
When you search for information about the Dugway Geode (they are actually thundereggs and not geodes) bed in central Utah, you will find conversation after conversation about how bad the road to the locality is, and I couldn't disagree more.
All the times we have gone, the road is just a normal, bumpy, gravel desert road, nothing to write home about and nothing our Subaru couldn't handle, or any other vehicle for that matter.
Have you gone there? How would you rate the drive out to it?
