Well my plight continues. Today I came to the realization of my errors in deleting the default route. Once we have reconnected after failing over, there is nothing in place to re add our default route! So I decided to simply reorder our default route metrics. Our wan route has a metric of 100 and our wan2 route has a metric of 200 so on failover I just replaced the wan default route metric with 300.
$ ip route replace default via 10.10.10.100/24 dev eth0 src 10.10.10.1 metric 300
Here are a few resources I found today that helped me:

And finally, I installed arch linux in a chroot so that I can have the benefits of a binary based distribution on my gentoo setup. My purpose for this is primarily gaming with playonlinux and steam. I would however like to migrate to using lxc as I believe containers would be a better solution. I looked at installing steam on gentoo and I don’t think I would like to do that as it requires udev and I am using eudev. Please correct me if I am wrong, but basically, it is the systemd free replacement.
Here are a few resources I found for setting up steam in a container:
