People always say running low kills your fuel pump but I have not had that experience. I almost always run around with my car below 1/8 tank and have on many many occasions had it go half way into the letter "E" ---- this is about as low as you can go before you run out. Once you get this low you can fill up with 14.2 gallons or so, neat trick for a 14 gallon tank.
If you think thats bad then I don't know what you'll make of my friend mike. I have never been in his car when the low level light was not on. And this doesn't mean he drivers slow whenever the light is on, he drives full throttle pretty much all the time and has never killed a fuel pump. I think that whole dirt and water and the bottom of the tank thing is a bit of a myth.

Also, since people are prone to running out of gas, I can't imagine the builders using a pump that fries every time the tank goes empty.
I've acually completly ran out of gas before. I was about 3 houses away from my own house. The road goes slightly uphill so I couldn't push it home 
I think I may have already posted in this thread, but I get between 210-230 miles per tank. Aren't the 04+ tanks bigger then the 03's?
