The Evans family was too poor to afford a vacation.

It's a TV show anything is possible the producers could have found a way around that situation maybe a rich friend pay's for their vacation to new york city

When you are poor you dont think about going on vacation.

Maybe someone could have finagled a trip to LA, where they could have went to Watts and met Fred and Lamont Sanford.

I was going to say, I didn't think they were financially stable enough to even consider a vacation...maybe at the end where they make it out...

Actually the OP was not mentally stable enough to post on sitcomsonline

I think they would have been too depressed to come back to the everyday life after an L.A. trip. LOL.
I'm laughing my butt off just thinking about it.
