Enterprise rent a car will rent you a truck for 65 bucks with unlimited mileage for a day. 115 with full insurance if your car insurance doesnt cover rental cars. Get some straps and a ramp and you're good to go.

Since I Have not done this before do you think i'll be able to fit two bikes in a truck? I am assuming its a pickup truck or is it one of those bigger 10ft trucks you are talking about?
you could get a dakota although it might be a bit tight and you wont be able to close the rear hatch thingy since the bed is shorter, or go with the full size and it shouldnt be a problem for 2 bikes. done 2 bikes with both trucks
the one at dixie/401 has a nice full size quad cab gmc sierra
they're both the same price so you're better off with the full size. only downside its higher off the ground, but with a decent ramp it shouldnt be a problem

Thanks paul !!! Appreciated I'll definitely go tomorrow and have see if I can find a full size truck !!!
from enterprise:
"KILOMETRES ARE UNLIMITED AS LONG AS THE VEHICLE REMAINS INSIDE THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO, WITH A MAXIMUM OF 4000 KILOMETRES. IF THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELLING OUTSIDE OF ONTARIO KILOMETRES ARE 200 KMS DAILY, 1400 KMS WEEKLY, AND 4000 KMS MONTHLY WITH .20 EACH ADDITIONAL KILOMETRE"
lol, km's are unlimited with a max of 4000kms.... so its not really unlimited is it?
How would they know a vehicle left Ontario? And how do other provinces and states km's driven differ from ours?
Get a hold of Chris aka InfernoBuster aka The Toy Hauler...

He has an enclosed trailer and will help you get the bikes home safely.
Last time he trailered a bike for me, I was honestly surprised at how low the price was.

Talk to them and they wont care if you're only crossing 10 km into buffalo.
Good luck trying to fit the bikes in. Tried that route before, its a cluster ****
Fair enough - I'd still try to get something in writing - hate to get in an accident south of the border and the contract (and insurance) considered null & void.
Some border agents ask to see the rental paperwork. You could get turned around at the border. It's just not worth it to try to cheat, as someone else already stated, they will normally add acceptable locations for free. It will say on the contract (I think in the notes section), that travel is allowed within New York.

So then go do it for him. So what if the airbox is actually filled with a brick of coke, you're just bringing a motorcycle across.

Thanks paul you have been a great help. I just rented a truck from enterprise will get it tomorrow morning. They have two trucks available either a GMC Sierra or a chevy Silverado. I would have the option to select either one tomorrow morning. Also yes they have unlimited km's only in ontario. I just told them i'll be going to Buffalo so they are charging me an extra 10 bucks and giving me Unlimited Km's still which is a good deal since its not worth taking a risk going across the border.
