My family frequently travels up North ( Tarlac, Nueva Ecija, and Pangasinan Area) but we haven't tried departing from Metro Manila during night time or actually use MacArthur highway starting from Monumento.

Use NLEX-SCTEX-TPLEX, up to Pozzorubio. Wala kang ma gain using McArthur Highway from Monumento, +2 hours ka sa travel time mo, ang daming road construction along McArthur Highway, especially sa Bulacan part, sobrang traffic at lubak lubak ang daan. Sa Tarlac part naman daming tricycle sa daan, karamihan walang backlight. Around 600 pesos lang ang toll fee from Balintawak to Pozorubio. Marami ding truck sa McArthur highway at night, mga nagtitipid din sa toll.
