Not to mention all the rental vans Amazon drivers have been using for the past few years. Nearly all of my Amazon deliveries come in a van with an "Enterprise Truck Rental" sticker on the side.

At least they are creating more jobs for delivery drivers that don't have a chance with UPS/FedEx/USPS. And besides, people choose where they are employed.
Amazon has also been helping the bottom line of Hyundai and Great Dane, both makers of 53' trailers. These ride on the BNSF Railway, which is also seeing a spike in intermodal revenue.
