Not in my case

I thought that seemed wrong as one of the reasons I went with the 22 is it had a 52" bed rather than the 48" on the 19'.

Did someone at the dealer swap my mattress out before purchase?
When I had my 22' International (predecessor to the 22' Safari), my 52" mattress tended to overhang the plywood that it rested on. My mattress was more like 54". That was a problem in that whenever someone sat on the edge, the mattress tended to migrate off the plywood platform. I ended up putting velcro strips on the plywood to better anchor the mattress.

I would hazard a guess that you were given the wrong mattress.
