2010 F-150 Stock Radio Upgrade - Single or Double Din?

I am going to be upgrading my stock radio here shortly, and there are all sorts of options for what to get. Im going to find a local shop to install it, but I am stuck deciding if I want to go double or single din.

I am going from the most basic radio offered in the F150 STX (though it has the buttons for sirius and all that naturally) and I havent seen many pictures of conversions that have been done. Im not sure if it looks better to pay the little extra and get a double din to help take up the space, or to go with a single?

Has anyone out there done, or seen a few different conversions and have a good idea of what generally works better?

I don't remember if the 10s have the dash setup as my 06 but here is a picture of my dash with the double din stock radio removed and a single din installed. Hope it helps.

The touch screens are nice when on a smoothe road, but good luck hitting the right spot on the screen when things are a little bumpy. I use my remote quite a bit because I know where the buttons are and I keep my eyes on the road. That being said, you can't - repeat cannot, beat having that backup camera screen in your dash. The co-pilot (S.O.?) will have a lot of fun playing with the touchscreen and it's easier than button combinations when you program your personal settings while in the driveway.
