Depending on when your house was built(the code has changed over the years), that garage GFI may legally feed other outside outlets, basement or bathroom GFI receptacles, or even the garage door opener receptacles.
If it is the only thing on that circuit, I see no reason why you couldn't extend the box, and add additional receptacles fed through conduit. If it is fed with 14 gauge wire (15 amp breaker) you should probably use the same.
However, if you have space for more breakers in the panel, why not leave the existing outlet alone and add another circuit?
