The view is scenic everywhere in Norway but it costs more + road tolls. The fjord-rich areas along the westcoast are probably the best for scenic. Maybe Hardangervidda (mountainous area down south). Other popular destinations include the Geiranger fjord, Atlanterhavsveien, Trolltunga and Preikestolen but if you want impressive 100% nature shots you might wanna go farther north like Lofoten.

The southern 2/3 of Sweden is pretty much flat but I'd say there's more deciduous forest and larger lakes with a flat spruce horizon compared to Norway. In large parts of central Sweden you'll be driving in corridors of firs the entire time. Northern part is more barren but beautiful. Southern has a more continental feel with open fields, deciduous woodlands and idyllic red houses. Look at topography maps to get an idea of the terrain. More mountains means less trees and the treeline is at around 700m altitude here.

AFAIK both countries have solid right to roam laws and atleast in Sweden you can stay on private land for one night as long as you're out of eye/earshot of buildings. There are some restrictions to lighting fires in peak summer and you should leave no trace. June is not the warmest month, that'd be July-August but still viable if you have a decent sleepingbag. RV sounds like a good compromise between cost and comfort. Food can be expensive, especially in Norway so you could pad your dinners with some brought-from-home food assuming you live somewhere cheaper.

Pic is en route (like a 10km walk) to Trolltunga from the parkinglot. Not representative of all of norway but almost.

Southern Gotland.

Okay, Norway seems like the place I want to go.

How much are the road tolls?

Norway for sure. Check out the "trolltunga".

Everywhere from a handful of NOK to 100ish. I remember paying 100 for some large bridge, that was nuts. I also got slapped with a 300 NOK penalty for driving through the wrong gate so watch that. Make sure you know how their tolls work with rental vehicles, I have no idea.
A better question would be how MANY are the road tolls. Newer bridges and tunnels tend to have tolls, as do all ferry crossings. These are most common along the coasts I'd guess because the landscape there is fjordy. On some ferries you have to go inside and pay manually.

Might wanna look at photography done in Norway to get an idea.

That pic was taken by my buddy's quadcopter at probably a few hundred meters on the norwegian west-southwestern coast.

This one is from the Hardangervidda area IIRC.

Christ, how could I fuck up that crop.

This is almost the same view but closer and more to the left.
