Curtis,
There are other solutions to your problem.
If your using static routes for your default route,
you can use floating statics to other router when
primary fails. You can also do equal-cost multipath to
both routers and load balance. HSRP/VRRP can do that
with multiple groups/VRIDs but more resources.
If your using a routing protocol, you should be able
to originate a default route to the other router(s).
Lastly, HSRP/VRRP are meant for redundancy for hosts
default gateway settings. A static route to a
HSRP/VRRP address would work but that only really
makes sense if you have a lot of routers on one subnet
with static routes. Why waste bandwidth/resources on
HSRP/VRRP when routing protocols can do it?
