You get a car - the enthusiasm of the new project is narcotic - start working on it - seek guidance and reinforcement - join the club - go to all the meetings - volunteer - organize - work your tail off - then your car becomes less a project and more of an appliance - you start perceiving less reinforcement for all your club work - you start missing meetings - you begin to look at club activities as contrivances rather than the fun they once thought they were - you have learned most of what you need to know about your car - you realize that friendships based on owning the same thing are pretty hollow, but there are a few people you've met along the way that you like and respect and want to stay in touch with - you get the idea.
