Default Expanding Garage Door

My garage is stretched by at least 4’ on one side, but only have a regular 16’ garage door. The space good easily accommodate an 18’ (or even 20’) garage door. Of course I’d want/need to expand driveway as well. This would make getting vehicles in and out infinitely better.

My question: has anyone in a similar situation widened their garage door opening? Has it had the benefit you were hoping for?

We are on a corner lot and I have considered widening garage to add golf cart garage area, but utilities are on that side so it would become a quite costly process. Just having better access to my already ‘oversized’ garage could be the ticket.
