Default 4.8 V-8 gas mileage with tune by hp tuners?

Was wondering with those out there with a tune, preferbily by hp tuners, what do you get for gas mileage? Or has it helped out much?

I just got a tune by a local guy where I live, and was wondering if I should expect a increase in gas mileage.

Was the mileage you got when the truck was stock, was that with a tune or without?
