There is no problem with crossing borders in a rental car. there is just a fee for doing so. The amount of the fee will depend on the start and end points, which agency you use and what car you rent (larger cars and those with automatic transmission typically cost more).

You will need to check the cost differential between keeping one car the entire time versus two shorter rentals (which may cost more since each is for fewer days, as well as the cost and hassle of training across the border).

Michael: I was JUST going to post the same link.

Very weird that yesterday's thread by a different OP is essentially identical :?
