How many NICs?
SELinux?

When you have SELinux, two NICs each that would use two different gateways,
system-config-network is worthless whether using the GUI or text based one.
The route will not stay permanent.  ifup would not process either route.ethX
nor ethX.route - at least not enough for it to show in route.  Had to set
the routes in /etc/rc.local.   Of course, you can't set two default
gateways, but you can add two routes via something like the following:

route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw     a.b.c.d    dev eth0
route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw     w.x.y.z    dev eth1
