I have yet to achieve 500 with my Metro due to nerves...
The factory gauge reports an early "E" and I always chicken out. I recently installed a different cluster that has a tach and it seems that it's fuel gauge falls to "E" even faster.

I do have a vehicle that achieves 500 miles every single tank though...too bad it takes 37 gallons to refill the '90 Suburban after pushing it that far. Refueling the 'Burb was what inspired me to buy another Geo Metro. The last time I filled it, the receipt was for $142.00...believe me, that was the LAST time.......I bought the Metro days later.
