I am willing to spend the night the 1st somewhere to help maximize my EQM's(i.e. not in Indy). My goal would be to get as many EQM's or Segments within the $1000 limit(inclusive of taxes). Any thoughts? Thanks in advance for any insight the group can provide.
So, let's see. Furthest possible from both SNA and IND but still a day away from both, with maximum possible indirecting as possible, including the return.

How about SEA for $987?

You get 7 segments and 8385 EQM:

Jun 01 SNA-DFW-SEA
Jun 02 SEA-LAX-IND
Jun 08 IND-CLT-ORD-SNA

That arrives in IND at 1653. If that's too late for your "evening" goal, you could leave SEA just after midnight instead, turning your SEA "overnight" into just a couple hours.

You could actually do MEX surprisingly cheap, but that requires an overnight in DFW both ways. Could you start a day earlier?
