My Garmin GDU-375 has software revision 8.40. Is it recommended to update the software to the latest version 8.60?

IMHO you should always download updates when available.
I have not as yet, but intend to as soon as I have time.
I need to update my charts as well.

I have not updated my GDU 375 in 1.5 years; do I need to do the updates individually or can I just use the latest one (8.6) to get all the updates?
Thanks. All updated to 8.6
