It's vague enough that, maybe, existing UberBlack drivers have the option; however, I'm sure if that is the case it is just a matter of time until that changes and they force them in or out.
Uber Dallas Update
UBERBLACK UPDATES
Students and football are back around The Metroplex, so the busy Fall Season is in full swing! With this demand in mind, Uber DFW has a few updates surrounding UberBLACK.
Starting Friday, August 28, UberBLACK will reopen, accepting new accounts. All vehicles added on or after August 28 will receive both uberSELECT and uberX requests, in addition to UberBLACK requests.
Existing UberBLACK partners have opportunity to take part in the following options:
OPTION 1: Increase your potential earnings and lower your costs by becoming an uberX, uberXL and uberSELECT partner, instead of UberBLACK. On uberX products, you don't need commercial insurance , which means you will rid of that excess expense by making the switch. On top of earnings saved by not having commercial insurance, uberX products have the lowest service fee at 20%. This will allow you to pocket more per trip. Sign up for uberX products below.
DRIVE ALL UBERX PRODUCTS
OPTION 2: Increase your potential earnings by opting in to start receivingall requests on the Uber platform. While continuing to receive UberBLACK trips, you will also receive requests from uberSELECT, uberXL and uberX. This will help ensure you're making the most of your time, taking more trips, and earning more per hour. Sign up to receive uberX product requests and UberBLACK requests below.
DRIVE UBERX PRODUCTS + UBERBLACK

UberBLACK will still be the most premium experience in town. Offering premium service encourages riders to request UberBLACK. Please continue to make sure you're always providing a 5-Star experience, no matter which type of request comes through.
Riders are More Likely to Rate 5-Stars When:

just saw a Uber Black/SUV report on Channel 8, not happy with Uber X being there. Uber Black drivers waiting 6 hours at DFW airport for rides. I find Uber charts useless especially this one when they dropped rates to .85 cents. No numbers!!
