I’ve got a vehicle like that, it has two fuel pumps. As long as I keep a quarter of the tank full, no problem. Can’t run it down to the fumes, or it will stall. Doesn’t really bother me, since I don’t like the tank to get that low anyway. Actually, it is sort of nice, because my husband likes to wait until a vehicle is almost empty before filling up. But if we drive mine, he knows it won’t work well, even if there is still some gas left in the tank.
Not good, running the tank dry causes the fuel pump to run dry. The fuel pump relies on the fuel for cooling. The damage can lead to premature pump failure costing $$$ to replace.
