That's good that you're getting 40 mpg averages. For some reason, my car really hates this winter blend crap, and my average went down to ~36. Doesn't help that I have the wrong size exhaust piping and 43.5lb tire/wheel combo. When ever I do any city driving, I'll watch my average go down, lower, and lower, and lower...

But yeah, I have no clue how much shorter running your tank near empty will do to your fuel pump's life. May not see it until ~150k miles or somewhere near there.
