I use " for strings when I need to use special characters, e.g.

:execute "nnoremap \<CR>" MyFuncResult()

I also use " for strings which contain ' characters, like:

:echo "I don't like to double up the ' characters"

I use ' everywhere else, especially when I want to include a literal backslash or a " character in a string.
