Matt,

Get yourself a DAR.  A 25 hour period with a 100 mile range is available.  
When talking to a potential  DAR examiner, make sure that he is amenable to 
this.  The purpose is to examine the airplane within the bounds of the 
envelope--heck, it takes 50 miles just to slow the thing down and prepare for 
landing...

And, most importantly, get a DAR whose understanding of the rules allows Mike 
Dehate to do the first flight and give you instruction.  Mike  probably knows 
someone close to you who located one--you didn't say where you live, but if 
you mention it on this site, someone will direct you to the right person.

You have met with the typical bureaucratic BS that gives the FAA its bad 
reputation.  Just because you are 10 minutes away, you do not have to use 
them for your exam.

As a side note, renting a IV to get your instruction would probable be an 
impossibility, and if you did locate one, the dollar amount mentioned would 
probably be much higher.
