OYE’s Father’s Day Gift Guide
Mom may be #1, but dad is usually a close #2. (Notice I made sure to say “usually” for those of you who have deadbeat dads.) There’s no better way to thank your jefe for all the times he slapped you, for all the toys he didn’t buy you, for all the fun times he squashed…sorry, I digress. I meant to say there’s no better way to thank him for all his dedication than to get him a nice gift on father’s day. Seriously though, to all the great fathers out there, we salute you. And remember you have OYE to thank when your son gets you one of these sweet gifts from our official list of Regalos Chingones for dad.

BLACK AND DECKER SMART SCAN CAR DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
Say adios to shady auto shops. The Black & Decker Smart Scan checks your car’s diagnostic codes to let you know exactly why that annoying “check engine” light is on. It also tells you if the problem makes your car unsafe to drive or not. More importantly, you’ll already know what’s wrong in the event you have to take it to a mechanic, thereby avoiding unnecessary repairs that mechanics often invent on the spot. Can also be used as a “lie detector” for your mechanic.

PROTOCOL FALCONJET RC HELICOPTER
This is really a gift for yourself cleverly disguised as a gift for your father. The FalconJet is a remote controlled helicopter that flies like a real helicopter. It’s a seriously fun little gadget. You can zip it around the house to chase your dog around or take it outside to show off your piloting skills to the hotties in the neighborhood. Kids love it too (though we don’t recommend you let them take control of it). The flashing lights look pretty sick at night but may have your neighbors making reports of UFOs.
