What should "Employer's Letter" contain?

Dear Immigration Forum members,

I have few questions concerning receiving TN visa via POE.

1) I can either fly back (Pearson airport) or drive back (upstate NY border) - which is generally preferred?
2) What should the employer's letter contain?
3) I would preferably want to get 3 years for TN. However, I heard that # of years depend on the officer and I should not ask for how many years from him. Is this true. Would there be any ways to indicate on the letter for full 3 yrs of TN?

Thank you very much again for all the helps!
 
3. The duration is NOT upto the officer. Now, it may be because of your passport expiry that you are only given an I-94 with less than the full duration, but if your sponsor asks for 3 years (stated in the letter), you are applying for a 3-year TN, nothing less.
2. That is a pretty basic question that your letter writer should get up to speed on.
1. whichever is cheaper/quicker/convenient. No difference.

Thank you for your kind answers.
Here is a little complex question. My employer owns several clinics, one of which is a Headquarter (LLC - located in NYC) and has bunch of other LLC/PLLC clinics (located in different parts of NY). My lawyer told me that to apply for GC, I should stick to HQ for sponsoring company. However, in employer's letter, if I write that my sponsoring company is Headquarter (Located in NYC) while I will actually work in different parts of NY, wouldn't officer think it's weird. Also, is it necessary to write location of employment in the letter?

Thank you again.
 
Location is not part of TN, but it is part of the GC process. I'm going to leave this with your lawyer.
 
Just to add (and I'm assuming you know already), don't even think of bringing up GC when you are getting your TN to avoid any issues
