I wanted to comment on your Wife's dismay. You'll have to prove to her that you can do this and make a believer out of her.
I've spent the last two years scrapping part time, working my tail off plus working a full time job. I told my Wife when I started that I was going to save up and buy her a new car. I told her that it might take 1 year or maybe 2 or 3 years but it would happen. She never really believed I would be able to do this but it happened the other day. She is a believer now.
