Our double is a BOB duallie (huge monstrous beast but pushes like it's light as a feather). We'll have 4 kids but the older 2 (9 and 12) don't ride.

I have several single strollers to choose from (uppababy g lite umbrella stroller that does not recline, valco snap 4 with snack tray or BOB single).

DH thinks we should bring 2 singles. We are within walking distance to Disney(land) so we don't have to worry about folding it up for trams or busses. We're also driving.

WWYD?
 
I think it's personal preference, but my husband and I brought singles the last 2 times we traveled to WDW with our 2 kids. We find it easier to maneuver through the crowds, and there were also times when we separated from each other for various reasons, which would have been difficult to do if we had a double stroller.
 
Normally, I would say stick with the double, but the BOB Dualie is huge! Disneyland Main Street can be very difficult to navigate with a double wide. It is narrower than the Magic Kingdom and just feels more crowded.

If you are trying to get in or out during parades or fireworks, it will be slow going, especially if they don't open the exit corral that goes behind the camera shop. Only the sidewalks are available during those events. In December, it took us more than 30 minutes to get from the gate to the entrance of Tomorrowland, but it was exceptionally crowded for that parade (Rain has canceled the parade 3 days straight). We only had one single and were very glad that was all. I can't imagine the frustration of doing that with a double wide!

You didn't say how old your Littles are, but if there is any chance they might need a nap, make sure you take the strollers that recline. And if they have a sun shade, even better!

Don't know if it matters, but DCA is much easier with a stroller. Wider walkways and less crowded.
 
I would normally saw one double but I dont think so for the BOB. I had one once as a rental and I really had a hard time wiht the size, and the with disney crowds it isnt the pushing ease that's the most important, it's not running over everyone! SInce you have two extra pushers with you, I would go with two singles in this case. Or rent a citi mini double!
