Be aware of the usual suspects in the desert; things that bite, sting, scratch, poke, etc. Uneven ground can make secure footing a concern. Step carefully.
Always a good idea to bring some water along.

The road is in good shape, though fairly rough in places. 2WD vehicles should be OK, though deep sand or high clearance could be a concern in some places. Use your best judgement.
The '50s
“Still like that old time rock 'n' roll
That kind of music just soothes the soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old time rock 'n' roll”
- Bob Seger & Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section (1979)
