I agree with KCs line of thinking in his last post and thought I would add 2 more tents to his list. My spring, summer and fall horse packing tent without needing a stove is currently a Terra Nova Etesian 4. 13#, goes up quick like a Hilleberg, stand up room to get dressed, large vestibule for all my gear and so far very stable and weatherproof. It is a tall profile so you always have to take that into account. Paid $400 new with footprint. My truck tent lately is a Sportsmans Warehouse Browning Glacier Extreme 6 for $450. Same style as AO but no stove jack. Goes up quick, lots of guy outs, 2 vestibules, full coverage fly and weighs about 30#. This tent with a buddy heater would work well for what he's looking for.
