2 person floored tent for tall people?

I have a Stephenson's Warmlite 3R. Bomber tent that weights about 4lbs 5 ozs. Little heavier than the single pole or hiking pole tents, but the quality can't be beat. Mine is 20 years old and still going strong. I'm 6'4" and its got plenty of space for 2 people and gear.
