I reset the trip meter when I fill up, but I don't always fill up at the same time. I try to fill up right before the low fuel light comes on. Regardless of when you fill up, if you divide your mileage from fill up by the number of gallons you put in at your next fill up (whether it's 1/2 empty or 3/4 empty), it will give you a relatively close estimate of your mileage.
EDIT: and I never drive until empty because you never know where you'll be when you run out!
