Many or the Fleetwood units are exactly the was you suggest, Duel heat pumps with duel furnaces. My Pace Arrow was that way and my new HR is the same. Coleman (RVP) units heat well down to about 40 degrees. Less than 40 they'll run a lot and probably not keep up. When its cold out, both gas and pump will run if there is 5 degrees difference between space and set temperature. The pump alone will try to recover the last 5 degrees.
If you are set for electric heat and the thermostat doesn't satisfy the temperature in 3 hours, if memory serves me, of run time the thermostat will lock out the pump and switch to gas.
On my Pace the front furnace heated the bays and on the HR they're heated with the rear furnace.
