Frequent travel from Buffalo, NY to Detroit, MI?
I plan to frequently travel from the two cities and just curious how you would recommend doing it. Plane, Train, Automobile? Via Sarnia? Via Windsor? or Via Cleveland?

Canadian route is almost 100 miles less than going through the states, also it's a safer route in the winter due to the lake effect snow, that I'm sure you're very familiar with.
2 :
If your business takes you into the city, and you have a current passport, Windsor would probably be your best choice. However, the trains don't cross the river. Of course, there's no Customs to mess with going by way of Cleveland, but it will take longer. Then again, if you fly, it'll be considered domestic, and no passport will be necessary.
3 :
As long as you have a passport (or other documentation deemed acceptable), I would suggest crossing the border at Niagara Falls, N.Y. and then getting on the 401 (highway) directly to Windsor and crossing the border there into Detroit. This is your most direct route. Sarnia is way out of the way (adding at least 2 hours to your trip - an extra hour up to Sarnia and another hour after crossing into Port Huron and then on to Detroit) and Cleveland is a roundabout way as well.
