Just got home.  I'll call garage Monday morning to see if they can diagnose/fix.  Truck had a pool of oil under it when stopped, and oil on the exhaust and trailer hitch.  But no loud bangs; just steady loss of power.  Jeep and trailer are locked in garage storage lot.

Got diagnosis today.  Blown HPOP.  It will be fixed today, and I'll drive up tomorrow morning to pick it up.
