I have a 22 ft class C MH, Recently trip has put on close to 9,000 miles. Should I take it to the shop for front wheel alignment? I don't feel the steering wheel pulls on either side unless the road is not even. Thanks for your advice.
 
Check the tires for uneven wear. Usually if something is out of alignment you'll feel it as always having to steer in one direction to keep it straight &/or the tires wear unevenly (more on one edge than the other). Otherwise, if the suspension is greased on schedule and you're not jumping over curbs, it shouldn't go out of alignment in normal use.
 
If it's going down the road straight and not wearing the tires, then as the Beetles song says Let it Be. Save the green for your next adventure.

On the other hand, if it is going to be nagging at the back of your brain get it aligned. It is really your choice.

If you take it in, be advised when the tech puts it on the machine and its within tolerance even though they don't have to turn a wrench, they will still charge you the full Monty. (Back in the day I worked at a Dealership) Our local truck garage gets a buck and a half for an alignment, and I have heard of much higher.
And that is My Humble Opinion.
